    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Correct. I am using the stock firmware. I can only adjust the MTU size on the LAN side. Should I change to the Merlin firmware? From what I see it is just a re-flash. Can I go back to the stock firmware just as easily?

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    I reduced the MTU size on the Huawei LTE router to 1492 from 1500. It did not fix the issue.

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    sfx2000 might be on to something. I am away from home right now, so I can't try the MTU size suggestion. But I did hook up my ASUS at a friend's house and it works well. He's on a fiber connection. I plugged the AC88U into his router, to simulate a similar network-within-a-network setup I have...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Thanks for the idea. I tried it, but it did not solve the problem. I tried toggling those setting individually, and both at once. Neither option helped.

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Love it! And I'll leave a printout of that PDF the AC88U is having trouble downloading, in case he ever encounters this same EXACT issue :). Small update: - I tried connecting the AC88U to a different port on the Huawei router. It did not solve the issue - I tried using a different cable to...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Things I will try next: - different cable between the ASUS and the Huawei. I don't think it's likely, but it's easy enough to try and put away that hypothesis. - connect the ASUS router to a different LAN port on the Huawei. I just realized that there's still a chance it could be the Huawei LTE...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    I dug out an old PC and tried the same wget test via ethernet. Same result as over wifi. First I connected this PC via an ethernet cable directly to my Huawei router, and did wget http://www.skoda-auto.pl/_doc/48472524-82b6-4cd0-a68c-2dd2179cd734 It worked as it should have. The file...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    The issues are happening on Wifi. I don't have a wired computer available at the moment to test out whether it also happens over ethernet as well.

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Just to make sure I was not going crazy, I changed my ASUS AC88U into AP mode. And now everything works well. Except, that the AC88U is in AP mode. And I need it to be a router, and have its own network. <sigh>

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Here's another file download that causes similar trouble for the ASUS AC88U: wget https://desktop-release.notion-static.com/Notion-2.0.21-arm64.dmg If I connect to my Huawei LTE router's Wifi directly, this download starts at about 800kb/s, and reliably continues like that until it finishes...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    I will look to track down some other examples of servers that cause my ASUS AC88U trouble. Maybe I will be able to identify something common among them.

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    To start with, I unplugged my switch from port 8. I did not plug it back in for this test, to eliminate any potential interference from the wired network. I updated the firmware, rebooted the router, and immediately ran my wget test. It worked as before -- downloading quickly one, and starting...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    The router is using the ASUS firmware 3.0.0.4.384_20942-ge38bead I have never reset it to factory settings. The router was having issues pretty much from the start, but just more recently I narrowed them down the the ASUS router itself, and was able to find a tiny reproducible test case using...

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    Do you mean using curl instead of wget? The issue is not with the tool. The issue is tied to the location of the resource I am fetching. I get good performance with wget for some PDFs, and very poor for others. If I switch the Wifi network to bypass the ASUS router, the issue goes away.

    AC88U interfering with some downloads while in router mode

    I have an ASUS RT-AC88U WiFi router. It is connected upstream to a Huawei LTE router via an ethernet cable, which then connects me to the internet. Things mostly work connected to the ASUS router via Wifi. I can access most sites without a problem. But some things don't work. When I try to...
